When Ozzie & Co. produced this video, this song, I was 22 years old. Already refused to participate in Uncle Sugar’s war in Vietnam. Ozzie Osbourne always was my kind of working-class hero. Same sort of tough neighborhood streets I grew up on in Bridgeport.

I was singing BITD. Me and my beloved Epiphone Bard 12-string. Some of my peers are still at it. Yes, I still have an axe in the house. Sort of resumed several times over the years; but, I was always capable of expressing heartfelt emotion straight-up verbally in one or another form and forum…with the advent of the Web. Been good enough for me.
